  1. This is Edmonton today
  2. I was thinking the same thing. It is a little stupid Inline filter
  3. I bought a fuel filter and oil filter for my 2008 switchback. According to the manual, when replacing the oil filter, the system needs to be bled which they tell you to take it to the dealer to do everything. Does anybody know how to bleed the system? I didn't find anything online. It is hard to find information on a two stroke oil filter lol. Also is there any special procedure for changing a fuel filter? Do I need to prime the system or something?
  4. Happy Halloween. I live in a rural subdivision with about 24 houses. The smallest lot is around 1.5 acres, so there is a bit of space between each house. What kids there are here don't bother walking our street. Their parents bring them into the city right off the hop. Apparently it is pretty popular to go to the west Edmonton mall and go trick or treating as all the store fronts hand out candy.
  5. https://www.carthrottle.com/post/chevrolets-new-copo-drag-racer-is-a-9-second-electric-car/ Chevrolet’s New COPO Drag Racer Is A 9-Second Electric Car General Motors has unveiled a new eCOPO concept in a Camaro shell, as a toe dipped into the water of where the COPO programme is headed REMIND ME LATER You’re looking at Chevrolet’s newest addition to its long line of Central Office Production Order (COPO) performance specials. And it’s electric. Based on the 2019 Camaro – which already has the SS model’s emergency facelift – the eCOPO concept packs a pair of BorgWarner electric motors built into a single assembly, capable of troubling the rear tyres with over 700bhp and 600lb ft of torque. The transmission is, interestingly, a conventional automatic, suggesting that the eCOPO has functional gears. The motor has the same bell housing mounting pattern and crankshaft flange as the LS family of V8s, meaning any gearbox that fits an LS should fit the eCOPO motor. The motor is designed in such a way, says GM, that to switch a compatible car to electric power you only need to remove the engine and bolt the motor into its place. Mounting the motor at the front does increase driveline frictional losses and means the motor has a lot more metal to spin, but the potential for easy EV swaps is astonishing. Built in collaboration with Hancock and Lane Racing, its current quarter-mile sprint times are in the nine-second region, but there’s more development to come. It runs on Chevrolet’s first 800v electrical system, made up of four 200v modules weighing almost 80kg each that are placed strategically around the chassis for better weight distribution. Further to the running concept is a potential crate ‘engine’ programme. The motor and battery packs could be made available in the future as a turn-key crate-delivered powerplant, just like today’s LS and LT V8s.

  6. Just searched Google for this image. Absolutely beautiful car Zam. I have a weak spot for Corvettes lol.
  7. Lmao, this one is a little more than usual.
  8. Ok that's good. I was wondering if the 4000-4500 was too high. It is also very gutless. Quite doggy. Now that being said it had 2 year old gas with fouled spark plugs up until today. So I am hoping some fresh fuel mixed with seafoam will clean it up.
  9. Does anybody have an idea what rpm a 2007 crossfire 600 should idle and then start to spin the track? Mine idles around 1500 and engages at 4000 does that seem right?
  10. Lol fuck that shit. 3.5 hours to change all those damn plugs. They are a hell of a lot better than what we took out. Also it's not mine lmao
  11. It had champion plugs in it. We put Bosch double Platinum plugs in.
  12. Just finished helping my brother in law change 24 spark plugs. 8 on his V8 Toyota and another 16 on his 05 Durango Hemi. The asshole that thought that 2 spark plugs per cylinder with that many under the dash should be shot with a ball of their own shit. What a horrible set up. One could say that the spark plugs in the Durango were long over due....
  13. Which is a relief lol. Probably just a unplugged sensor or something.
  14. I just came back inside from doing that. When I was trying to figure out what to do online, someone said there was a fault code breakdown on the airbox. So I went out to double check that what I was reading online was my issue. Apparently I have a coolant sensor issue. 6 flashes
  15. Well the brake works on the CRF 6. I have it mostly back together minus rear suspension (waiting on sliders). I fired it up and I am getting a check engine light flashing 6 times. According to the internet, it is a servo motor issue. Most people said to clean the exhaust valve. I did that earlier this week and this is the first time it has fired up since. Anyone have any ideas?
  16. Seals are $20 each and pistons are $88 each. I am going to try and clean these ones and hope it seals. If that doesn't work, I will be looking for a used one like you said.
  17. Does anybody know if these brake pistons are ok? Do I use scotch Brite on them? Or just put them back in? There was a bunch of dirt behind the piston. Seals seem good.
  18. Does anyone know how to rebuild a brake caliper on a 07 Arctic Cat? Was bleeding the brakes tonight and it was taking a long time. So I have the wife come out and pull the brake lever a bit while I checked it out. Kind of hard to bleed brakes with a leaking caliper piston seal. Little bubbles are coming out around the piston. I have never had a caliper a part on anything and the isn't much information on the internet. Mostly for ATVs.
  19. Sounds like the better option. At least people wouldn't think you "play for both teams" lmao. My brother used ride a 2007 500ss. That thing would keep right up to my 07 600 cfi, get better fuel economy and easier on oil.
  20. That shift is nice. It is on the IQ raw chassis. If it was a 2007-2008 it would have a way fatter front end, fuel tank and seat. In 2009 you got the raw chassis with the dragon sp. In 2010 and up it became more standard across the line up with the exception of the shift in 2010. The IQ raw is much nicer than the fatter IQ. I found my IQ 600 cfi's very easy to start. They both would do around 95-100 mph on the dream-o-meter. Not bad on fuel and oil.
  21. Ok, will check tomorrow. Thank you.
  22. Is that a normal thing? I don't remember how my m8 was and the last Polaris I owned was 5 years ago and it was a 2010 600 switchback
  23. So I couldn't post a video with my phone as it exceeds the file size limit. When you start to here rattling I have the phone close to the engine. I am sorry if this is beginner lessons. I don't have anybody else to ask questions to aside from taking it to a shop lol 20181017_190851_Voice.amr
